I prefer Through Times of War to any Darkthrone release tbh.

Slayer sucks. Period. No member of their band is a good musician.

Both Lombardo and Jeff are good musicians. Not sure about Tom. Kerry King is ok.

Most of the second wave was in Norway....

Are you from the Megadeth boards?

 

[Scavneck]

Slayer is ok, the voice is shit tho, but Seasons in the Abyss is one of the greatest metal songs of all time

 

[mutantllama]

I love Araya's voice. It fits Slayer so well imo.

 

[The Ozzman]

It used to fit it well. You can tell he's losing it now.

 

[General Zaroff]

His work on Show No Mercy is subpar tbh.

Yeah, he sounds bad now.

I love his voice on Show No Mercy.

 

[General Zaroff]

I prefer Reign In Blood vocals. He just sounds like he tries too hard on Show No Mercy.

 

[mutantllama]

He has a more old school sound on Show No Mercy imo.

Correction: Hanneman and Lombardo are talented but King sucks shit.

I don't think Kerry King totally sucks, but he's not the greatest guitar player in the world or anything. The true talent in Slayer comes from Lombardo and Hanneman...that I agree with.

 

[no country for old wainds]

tom araya '83-'86 = best metal vocalist of all time

I dont know if id go that far, but Show No Mercy is fucking amazing and who gives a shit if a person is talented, they wrote a shitload of good fucking tunes.

 

[mutantllama]

I disagree. Even in thrash.

Show No Mercy is probably my favorite Slayer album. So many cool songs on that one and they sound so full of piss and vinegar.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i think as a whole i like 'show no mercy' slightly more than 'bonded by blood', but it doesn't come close to that album's peaks

 

[Life Sucks]

On Show No Mercy, Tom didn't even have his typical voice yet. The vocals definitely sound different than they do on the other albums. Actually, Haunting the Chapel and Hell Awaits sound like somewhat of a transition point.
